Welcome to Do Not Pass Go

Do Not Pass Go is Canada’s first and only independent journalism venture dedicated to reporting on competition, corporate concentration, monopoly and consumer affairs issues.

Brought to you by award-winning journalist and best-selling author Peter Nowak, Do Not Pass Go delivers incisive reporting and investigation through newsletters and podcasts every week.

Why Subscribe?

Everyone has heard the saying – that Canada is just three companies in a trench coat. Whether it’s airlines, banks, telecom companies and grocery chains, consumers are paying more, workers are making less and innovation is stalling thanks to corporate concentration in virtually every industry. No matter who you are, you’re affected.

The good news is that pro-competition movements are gathering momentum in Canada and around the world. Governments, regulators and – most importantly – the public are becoming increasingly aware of the individual and collective harms arising from concentration.

Subscribing to Do Not Pass Go is the easiest way to join that movement. Do your small part and sign up now.

Who’s Behind This?

It’s me – Peter Nowak! I’m a journalist and former staff editor and/or reporter at The Globe and Mail, CBC, National Post and the New Zealand Herald. I’ve written some non-fiction books too, including Sex, Bombs and Burgers, Humans 3.0 and The Rise of Real-Life Superheroes. I also spent four years as an executive at TekSavvy, Canada’s biggest indie ISP, where I got a front row seat to the problems that smaller companies face when trying to compete against entrenched incumbents.
